“Does the State of Israel have the right to exist?"
Friend of Israel,
In a TV interview just 72 hours after Hamas stopped firing 4,300+ rockets at Israel this May, Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Zahar was asked the simple question above.
His answer: "No."
During the interview, al-Zahar admitted Hamas's strategy during its 11-day attack was to target Israeli population centers, “to attack Israeli targets at very important points, including most of the overcrowded area in the civilian society.”
Naturally, there was no outrage from the U.N. or the international community to these remarks. There was only a condemnation of Israel, and a questioning of why it acted to stop the terrorists launching rockets at its citizens.

Help us keep Israel safe.
Please join AIPAC by July 31.
Hamas goes to unthinkable lengths to cause death and destruction.
That’s why AIPAC works to educate lawmakers and ensure Israel has the means to defend its citizens.
Currently, AIPAC is working with Congress in support of The Hamas International Financing Prevention Act (House) and The Palestinian International Terrorism Support Prevention Act of 2021 (Senate).
This bipartisan legislation would impose sanctions on persons or agencies of foreign nations that knowingly support the terrorist activities of Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
In addition, AIPAC is also working with Congress and the administration in support of aid to help Israel replenish Iron Dome, which intercepted more than 90% of the rockets before they could strike Israeli neighborhoods this May — saving countless lives.
